[WSBAPT] Corrected Deed

[Mike Winslow]

Stuart’s approach works and I have used this in the past. However, beware of changing documents and recording when there is any concern that a signatory to the document might object to the change. Better to have them initial the change before rerecording.
If it is a simple scrivener’s error in the legal, which would not be subject to attack, then you could dispense with the approval from the party.

I usually re-record the same deed and cross out the old description and add the new description.  I then type on the face of the deed near the top something to the effect of “Re-Recorded to Correct Legal Description”

Well, my humanness rose to the top today when I learned I make a mistake on the property description of a recently recorded deed.  To make the correction, is there anything I need to be aware of or simply record a new deed in its place and reference the first mistaken recording number?
 
Any guidance is great so I don't create a mistake of the mistake!
